BEEF HOUGH/SHIN

Shin of beef has to be one of the tastiest cuts on the beef animal. You can braise it slowly and serve with cabbage and mashed potatoes or I always dice some and make a casserole with 50% shin of beef and 50% stewing steak, in fact if entertaining I will also add diced venison. This cuts really adds depth to many dishes, yet is rarely seen out of a traditional butchers.
